Lizzie’s Story

Severe Anxiety • Irregular Cycles • Period Pain • Acne • Fatigue • Cravings

“I wanted to fix the root cause, not just take pills. Now I understand my body, and I finally feel like me again.”

"I spent 10 years on anxiety meds, trapped in a cycle of panic attacks and depression—until I realized my hormones were the missing piece."

Lizzie’s struggle began in her teens, but it wasn’t until her late 20s that she noticed a pattern: crippling anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and irregular periods that left her feeling "like I was just surviving, not living." Despite years on medication, her symptoms persisted. "The pills numbed me, but they didn’t fix anything. I’d wake up with dread for no reason, cancel plans, and isolate myself—even riding my horse felt impossible."

The Hormone Connection

After tracking her cycle, Lizzie saw the link. "My lowest moods always hit before my period. I’d miss cycles or bleed for weeks, but doctors just offered higher doses of antidepressants." A gut test revealed dysbiosis, tying her digestive issues and mood swings to hormonal imbalances. "Finally, I had answers—not just bandaids."

Small Changes, Big Shifts

Working with Rose, Lizzie embraced fertility awareness and gentle diet tweaks. "Learning about my cycle blew my mind. How did I not know this?" She swapped processed snacks for nutrient-dense meals (with an 80/20 balance) and saw rapid improvements: fewer panic attacks, stable energy, and even weight loss. "I didn’t realize how much stress and crap food were blocking my progress."

Where She Is Now

Two cycles in, Lizzie’s transformation is undeniable. "I’m happy again. My focus is sharper, my periods are regular, and the crushing lows are gone." Her advice to others? "If your gut says something’s off, listen. Healing my hormones didn’t just change my cycle—it gave me my life back."
